Great space. I've booked on multiple occasions. Perfect for small team meeting up to four people. Only challenge, which could be my fault, is understanding how to access the building more easily. Each time, I was fortunate to run into someone that had a key card.

space was nice but managed loosely. I arrived the front door was locked and I had to slip in with someone that was going in. There was no reception or orientation to speak of so it was kind of awkward.

Great space, great location, generally easy to use. The only glitch was on the first day and the issue of how to get into the building if no one is at the desk - that was a little stressful. It would be helpful if there was an access code to get in first day, or an access code to get to a fob - something that allows for not having to rely on someone being there.

When we arrived, the door was locked and there was no receptionist. Another tenant let us in...but we hadn't been there before so didn't know what to do. There was another person in the room who rudely waved us on. We were there 2 minutes before our 10am. When we went for coffee, the keourig machine was not working, (or we didn't know how) and when asked someone in the co-working space if they knew, their response was a brash "push the button."
Instead, we made a coffee run.
Those few things kind of rubbed us wrong the way. While the space is nice, the personell was less so.
We would probably rent again, but do not take kindly to pretentiousness.

Very kind facilitator and nice quiet common area. I felt welcome from the moment I entered. I will definitely repeat getting this space. Easy parking and great facilities. Perhaps the only downside was the windowless environment, but the price/value was outstanding.
